Date::M...TZ_Base(3)

💖 Date::M...TZ_Base(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Date::M...TZ_Base page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation — yes the title is literally truncated with dots, that's just how the header rolls, don't @ me 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

Date::Manip::TZ_Base — methods common to the TZ and Base classes 🫶

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

so Date::Manip::TZ_Base is a second base class, and it's the shared ancestor for these two Date::Manip classes:

• Date::Manip::Base
• Date::Manip::TZ

and like… this module is not meant to be called directly, bestie. it does no useful function by itself. literally none. instead you use the various derived classes that inherit from it, periodt 👑

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

k so this module has no public methods — none, zero, nada — and it's used internally by the Base and TZ classes. it's giving backstage crew, not main character 🎀

here's the tea though: in some instances, basic date operations depend on timezone information, and all timezone operations depend on the base class. so like, circular dependency vibes 😭 in order to avoid that, the author created this class, and that's how the circular dependency got dodged. iconic problem-solving honestly 🧚

💀 KNOWN BUGS 💀

None known.

like… nothing. clean sheet. we love a flawless queen ✨
